  1. Stand with feet shoulder-width apart, holding the band in one hand.
  2. Lower into a squat, keeping your back straight and chest up.
  3. As you stand up, pull the band towards your body, engaging your back muscles.
  4. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions, then switch arms.

How to perform the Band Squat with Single Arm Row

  1. Set up. Set up in a stable, balanced starting position appropriate for the Band Squat with Single Arm Row using your band.
  2. Brace and execute. Brace your core, control the descent, and move through a full pain-free range of motion while emphasizing your quadriceps.
  3. Reset. Reverse the movement under control and reset between repetitions, keeping your form crisp on every rep.

Coaching cues

  • Move with intent — every rep should feel deliberate, not rushed.
  • Drive force through your quadriceps rather than momentum.
  • Keep your breathing steady: exhale on the hard part, inhale on the reset.

Common mistakes

  • Using too much weight and losing positional control.
  • Cutting the range of motion short and missing the target muscle.
  • Letting your spine round or hyperextend instead of staying neutral.
